Due process. Academic freedom. An independent judiciary. A free press. A professional civil service. A protected environment. These aren't partisan talking points; they are the pillars of a healthy nation. And every single one of them is under direct assault by the Trump administration.

Reuters gathered an expansive set of arrest records in D.C. since Trump's show of force began. The number of arrests -- a key measure of law enforcement activity, not necessarily of crime -- barely changed.

Every single word spent dishonestly attacking Zohran is a word not spent attacking Trump’s Big Ugly Bill, which Republicans are trying to pass as we speak.

And then this shit just came out.
When you’re making over $700k a year, gaining $12k is nothing. It’s a nice vacation, redoing the garage, giving a niece/nephew a car.
When you’re making $23k a year, losing $1600 is “are we paying for food or for the house or for medical bills” territory.

Budzinski: Families making over $700,000 a year will see a boost of $12,000 almost entirely from tax cuts. Shockingly, households making $23,000 a year or less are set to lose about $1600 a year, mostly due to deep cuts to Medicaid and food assistance

Gavi, the Vaccine Alliance, has helped save an estimated 18.8 million lives since its inception in 2000 through its immunization programs in low-income countries
And yet today RFK Jr. announced he is pulling US funding of the program.
RFK Jr. is no longer just a threat to public health in the USA.

I just have to say, as a historian of the Reconstruction-era Klan, that masked paramilitaries are very bad and masked vigilantes are even worse and there are causal links between the two and none of this is good for democracy.
Just some creepy armed Mad Max guys trying to gain entry to Dodgers Stadium.
ICE says it wasn’t them. DHS says they were Border Patrol. But honestly who the hell knows? They’ve given permission for any psycho to put on a ski mask, point a gun, grab people & throw them into an unmarked vehicle.

She is right. The Trump admin is literally doing this. They terminated humanitarian parole for hundreds of thousands of people who came here LEGALLY through a government program, and they are calling all those people "illegal aliens."
AOC: When they say illegal vs legal immigration—they are trying to end legal status in the US making people undocumented and then they have the audacity to call them illegal when they were here documented.

This is so smarmily disingenuous. We’re not talking about, like, some conscript kids who later went on to be honored for their contributions to science or literature. We’re talking about men who chose to LEAD an armed struggle for slavery, and are remembered & honored today for that very reason.
